Moyo is the international economist who shot to fame via her first book: Dead Aid, Why Aid isNot Working. Since then, she’s been named one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the World and her views regularly appear in The Economist, The Financial Times and the Wall Street Journal.

Now in her new book, Winner Take All, she takes another controversial stance, this time on China, and particularly how it will conquer the West – not through military force or ideology, but by buying up mountains and mines, agricultural land and oil fields.
